Episode 16 – If Only There Was Hockey In Chicago

A podcast for women’s hockey fans, by women’s hockey fans.

It’s been a while! We talked about the first PWHPA showcase, our hopes for the next ones, those new NWHL jerseys, and what we’d like to see from women’s hockey in the future. 

And we forgot to mention it but Lauren wants you to vote for Natalie Spooner on Battle Of The Blades, which you can do here.

Episode 15 - If People Were Legal Action, She Was A Lawsuit And I Was Also A Lawsuit

Alternate Titles included: “Hell is Empty And All The Conference Calls Are Here”, “We Accept The Lawsuits We Think We Deserve”, and “We Engaged In Lawsuits The Way You Fall Asleep, Slowly And Then All At Once.”

So this episode is a bit of a recap of what’s been happening in the world of women’s hockey. We talked about the Beauts/NWHL lawsuit nonsense, what the PWHPA is gonna be doing, and also women’s hockey’s continuing problem with transparency and communicating with the media.

The transcript for this episode can be found here.

Why Bryan Hicks was chosen to lead the Professional Women’s Hockey Players Association

NWHL Suing Buffalo Beauts Hockey

And while we didn’t touch on it in the episode, this article about the CWHL, and the stuff leading up to it shutting down is pretty good, if you don’t read french then google translate should work well enough.

All We Get Is Randy And No Airplane

IMPORTANT NOTE: This was recorded before the CWHL announced it was ceasing operations (and everything else that has happened since).

In retrospect it's kinda sad, but hey we said we'd do a drunk episode so here it is! Come back with us to a time where all was good and happy in women's hockey. We talk about the Clarkson and Isobel Cup Finals, why #FireRandy really needs to happen sooner rather than later, and recap our favourite moments from the CWHL and NWHL seasons. CW for alcohol, both discussed and consumed.

Hey Fam: I haven't said my 2018-19 NWHL goodbyes yet because I'm hoping I have one more week of on-site coverage left in me this season. Any support you can offer to get me to my fourth consecutive NWHL Final (three as a writer, one as a rinkside reporter) is greatly appreciated. I'm going for a Corinne Buie, y'all! Paz y amor, ELA

Sports writer Erica Ayala is raising funds to travel to Minnesota to cover the NWHL finals.

She provides really great NWHL coverage so if you’d like to see more, please rb this post and chip in if you can.

my #1 podcast rec is actually just “if you aren’t subscribed to Wil Williams’ and Elena Fernández-Collins’ newsletters yet, you should be.” also you should be following the Bello Collective, especially Ely’s monthly debut lists, and the #audiodramasunday tag on Twitter. there now you know all my podcast-finding secrets

[theradioghost]

I wrote this at midnight and my sleep-deprived brain left out a few people! In addition to Wil and Ely (and Ely’s lists at the Bello Collective), if you’re interested in knowing abt what’s going on with mostly-fiction podcasting stuff & new shows, you should also check out The Podcast Dragon, Berry at Podcasts in Color, Podcake/Cakeradio, Tuned In Dialed Up, Biconic Ace, AudioDramaRama, and also very much David Rheinstrom’s Radio Drama Revival! (also all these people are on twitter and they’re like 50% of what makes twitter worth it for me. they’re all great go follow them & subscribe to their newsletters (and Patreons))

“There is still an alarming amount of people who think that feminism is about unquestioningly supporting white cis women, even when they are showing their lack of regard for other marginalized communities. This “feminism” is just white supremacy by another name, masquerading as a social justice movement or as representation when it really only works for white, straight, cis women. When you call this good enough, it perpetuates bigotry by claiming to subvert it. In short, you’re full of shit.”

Two Brain Cells Are Better Than None

So this week Alice couldn't be on the show, but don't worry because the better parts of the podcast are here to give you witty, vivacious commentary on all that women's hockey has to offer.

Listen to Tay and Lauren as they talk about the Riveters and their lackluster coach, the tragedy of the Blades, the AWIHL's stellar streams, and the need to confront racism and White Feminism™ in women's hockey.
